Wargaming as Interactive History

Please check out my first article here at Armchair General, dealing with one of my favorite subjects, Wargaming!

I really enjoyed the article, Brian. Makes me want to start up a few more games of Europe Aflame!

Hello Brian et al,

I have been playing wargames since the 60's. FTF games were quite fun in those days, but now the internet and pc tech has allowed for quite a variety of gamers.

My old faves were Stalingrad of the classics and 3rd Reich among others.

Now I mostly play RTS such as "Rise of Nations" by MS.

Anyway, thanks for your devotion to the hobby.

best,
swampy

You don't look like Brit or German you more look like a Mantis
